The art of delaying a decision at the imposition and inconvenience of another party. It is a purely self serving approach that place's oneself on a pedestal. Drawn from Brett Favre's annual ritual of making NFL team's wait for his decision.

Steve: I dunno. I might just Favre it and call my boss around 10:30 and tell him I'll let him know by noon if I am going to show up.
Bob: Nice!
